Some times the bullying is by the teacher, emotionally and verbally, sometimes even physically.<\/p>\n<p>Some of my students have told me this year that a teacher in this school pushes and pinches them. One boy said that she often pushes\/hits him and pinches his ear. He said he pushed her back. It is tough when you have so many students and especially at the teenage level. Some of the well mannered teenagers get influenced into becoming rude and obnoxious to the teachers when they would not usually.<\/p>\n<p>I highly recommend home education.
